ActiveSync not transferring some recurring meetings Rob Nicholson 09-05-2007

I've just got a WM6 Smartphone (HTC S710) connected to my PC via USB using
ActiveSync to synchronise Outlook 2003 calendar.

It doesn't synchronise some long-standing recurring meetings, e.g. monthly
catch-up's with clients.

Any ideas? I've told it to sync all calendar entries but still doesn't make
any difference.

Thanks, Rob.

Do these recurring appointments have end dates? WinMo seems to have
a problem with recurring events that go on "forever".

Hi - not I don't think they do have an end date. I'll try setting a silly
one and see if that makes a difference.

Thanks, Rob.

Ahh yes that worked. I'm surprised an obvious bug like that has got in
there. The default when setting up a recurring meeting I think is no end
date.

Cheers, Rob.

Hi Rob--

email me off list if you are the Rob Nicholson that went to Southfield High, and
if not, good luck with your phone. :>)
